In the capital, night is gradually falling. The smoke of the cooking stove is rising, and the pedestrians on the street are gradually becoming sparse. Today's weather is very cold, the cold winter of the night seems to have come earlier, the people in the streets and alleys have not stayed too much in the urban area of the city, strangers have passed one after another, hurriedly returning home, the bustling urban area of the past seems a little quiet and deserted for a while......

Not far away, the footsteps of Mengyuan soldiers patrolling could be heard from time to time, and the cold armor and trembling faces would forever become a symbolic scene in the capital. At that time, the imperial court was in turmoil, there were enemies to resist outside, and there was interference inside, no one could predict what the fate of the Mengyuan court would be......

It was already dark, and the lights in the city gradually turned on, becoming a cold embellishment in the capital city where there are few night markets. At this moment, in the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce, the lights have been brightened, and the people inside are still discussing related matters......

"President Yang, I have said so much today, so I will ask you more for the future......" Sitting in front of Yang Zhengming, the president of the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce, was a very middle-aged man, and he only listened to him say slowly, "Although the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce is authorized by the imperial court, Mingjian Villa, which is one of the five major families in the martial arts, has a chivalrous heart of loving the people...... This time, the four brothers who came with him wanted to relieve the tax burden of the local people with wealth to the people, and this task was heavy, so I could have the help of President Yang and the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce, and Chen thanked me here——"

"Brother Chen has said a lot, in fact, I have heard about the deeds of the Beiyuan Five Heroes in Shandong a long time ago, and I deeply admire the chivalrous deeds of the Beiyuan Five Heroes......," Yang Zhengming responded with a smile, "This time, the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce can help the Beiyuan Five Heroes." It is the honor of Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce and even Mingjian Villa. Previously, Mingjian Villa had always wanted to do something good for the people, but it had never been able to do so under the oppression of the Mengyuan Imperial Court; I am also very excited and valued, and I can help you Beiyuan Five Heroes to make money to the people, and the owner of the flower village is also very praised......"

It turned out that the person who talked to Yang Zhengming was Chen Yang, the leader of the Five Heroes of the Northern Plains. Today, the five heroes of the Northern Plains were originally chambers of commerce that went to the five places separately to conduct negotiations in various places to help implement their policy of giving money to the people. However, fate is unpredictable. What is unimaginable is that the other four of the five heroes of the North Plains have been assassinated first...... Of course. Chen Yang and others did not know about this yet. The order to assassinate the Five Heroes of the Northern Plains was originally issued by Chatai Dordun to the various chambers of commerce visited by the Five Heroes of the Northern Plains, and the chambers of commerce visited by the other four Heroes of the Northern Plains also carried out the assassination operation in accordance with the orders of the Sadai Dordun. Gao Changyun, Zhang Tie, Zhong Qishan and Zheng Feng were also not spared...... Only the last Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce. Although it is the only chamber of commerce in the capital that has been granted the right to govern by the imperial court, it itself belongs to Mingjian Villa, and Mingjian Villa is not like Qingmo Villa to obey the Mengyuan court, and it has a sense of resistance to the Mengyuan Dynasty itself, so Chatai Dordun did not give the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce an assassination order, but seems to have other arrangements. Because of this, Chen Yang, who is now living alone among the five heroes of Beiyuan, has not been threatened by any kind......

"Thank you, President Yang, for your help today. To have a righteous faction like the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce and Mingjian Villa is believed to be a blessing for the people of the world-" Chen Yang seemed to have finished talking to Yang Zhengming. got up and prepared to leave, bowed his hand and said, "Thank you President Yang for your hospitality, it's getting late, and Chen should also say goodbye." When he comes with the other four brothers, he will thank you Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce-"

"Brother Chen's words are serious, it is also the wish of the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce and Mingjian Villa to be able to make a modest contribution to the people, and it is also our honor to be trusted by the Five Heroes of the Northern Plains......" Yang Zhengming also stood up and responded, "Since Brother Chen is leaving, then there will be no more to send in the future, if he still has something to ask for in the future, Yang will try his best to help——"

"Thank you, President Yang, then Chen will say goodbye today-" Chen Yang saluted lastly.

"Farewell-" Yang Zhengming also replied with a gesture of salutation, and then watched Chen Yang leave the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce......

After sending Chen Yang away, Yang Zhengming returned to his main living room, ready to deal with the relevant chores that had not been dealt with during the day. At this time, a subordinate hurriedly ran into the room, as if there was something urgent to report to Yang Zhengming.

"President, there's a message from the owner of the flower farm—" The subordinate said briefly.

"Flower Owner?" As soon as he heard that it was a message from Hua Ye, the owner of Mingjian Mountain Villa, Yang Zhengming thought that this matter must not be simple, so his eyes condensed slightly, and he asked cautiously, "It's so late, what urgent matter will the flower owner tell him at this time?"

"Please listen to your subordinates......" The subordinate quickly walked in front of Yang Zhengming, and then whispered in his ear, as if he didn't want others to hear.

And this news seemed to be shocking enough, and after Yang Zhengming heard it, he couldn't help but widen his eyes......

It was already dark, and there were many places in the streets and alleys where there were black lights and blind fires. Chen Yang was walking on the way back to Longming Inn, and it was a coincidence that the alleyway that Chen Yang walked was extremely gloomy and weird, not to mention pedestrians, and even the lights were nowhere to be seen. What's even more chilling is that even if other places are bleak and sparse, from time to time you can occasionally see columns of Mengyuan soldiers patrolling by. But in this place, let alone a human figure, even the voice of the ironclad soldier could not be heard......

However, Chen Yang didn't care too much about this, he just vigorously returned in the direction of Longming Inn. However, along the way, Chen Yang's mind couldn't calm down: "It's strange, a day has passed, and I came out of the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce so late, logically speaking, it is the latest...... Brother Gao, it's not that the four of them don't know that I am here in the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce, why didn't they come to look for me, and said that they went back to the Longming Inn in advance? The four of them have no news at all, it's really strange......"

Of course, Chen Yang didn't know that under the joint conspiracy of Chatai Dordun and Yizhou City King Xuan Wangxin's father and son, his four brothers had died tragically at the hands of others. Wang Xuan and Wang Xin's father and son originally ordered Chatai Dordun to get rid of all the five heroes of the Northern Plains, and now Chen Yang is the last one to survive. Of course, Tchatai Dorton also knew before arranging the assassination plan. The Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce and even the Mingjian Villa would never condescend to the Mengyuan Imperial Court, so they could not directly order an assassination order like they did to other chambers of commerce. But even if he wanted to get rid of all the five heroes of the Northern Plains, Chen Yang, the last leader of the original intention, could not be spared. It's just that it is not known how Chatai Dordun wants to kill him......

Chen Yang still didn't know anything about this matter, and he didn't know that the threat of death was getting closer and closer to him......

Chen Yang continued to walk in the deserted streets, and after another period of time, not to mention pedestrians, the streets were even completely devoid of lights. It seems that he has come to a chilling "ghost". The entrance to the alley is a one-way road connected by a crossing, with high walls on the left and an old wooden building on the right. There is no light along the building. Tonight is dark clouds again, the moon is never visible, and in the dark and cold night, walking on the street without lights. It's chilling.

"Whoosh-" coldly. The cold wind blew from the crossings at both ends of the street, adding a bit of horror and silence to the already cold winter night. Even Chen Yang himself felt a little chilly, and with his strong physique, he had to shrink his body at this time, put his hands in his sleeves, and walk tremblingly on the lonely street......

"What the hell is this place, let alone pedestrians, there is not even a single light...... Chen Yang hurried as he hurried. I also trembled in my heart, "What kind of road is this?" Why haven't I been here before? But this day is really cold enough, I thought that in Shandong, the winter is already very cold, but I didn't expect to come to the north to Dadu, the cold wind is even biting. Especially at night, it's really not something that ordinary people can bear, no wonder there are not many night markets in the capital of Mengyuan......"

After a few words, Chen Yang continued to walk forward. However, the cold wind in the streets and alleys continued to rage, and the sound of the cold wind in the ears rose and fell, as piercing as sharp knives. What's even worse is that as the night gets deeper and deeper, the cold wind is getting stronger and stronger, and a northern man like Chen Yang is a little unbearable when he walks at such a laneway.

"It seems to be too cold this day...... Chen Yang continued to mutter, but gradually, an eerie feeling gradually came to Chen Yang's side.

At first, Chen Yang thought that he had frozen a little hallucination, but gradually, this suffocating sense of horror became more and more intense, and even made Chen Yang tremble unconsciously. Chen Yang himself was also a little numb, and he didn't know if it was the cold at night that made him shiver, or the gloomy feeling that swept over him.

"What's wrong with me...... Chen Yang felt more and more that this feeling was too unnatural, and unconsciously a premonition came to his heart, "Could it be...... Someone!"

Chen Yang turned his head suddenly—suddenly, more than a dozen black-clothed masked assassins flew out from the mouth of the alleyway, each holding a silver knife that flashed with cold light, and stood silently in a row behind Chen Yang.

Chen Yang was also taken aback, and just wanted to turn around and continue running, but found that at some point, his way in front of him also stopped the same number of black-clothed assassins.

There are only two intersections in the lane, and there is no hiding place on the left and right, and now Chen Yang understood in the cold that the purpose of these black-clothed assassins was to kill themselves at the beginning, and they planned to be at the entrance of the alley where there was no way out.

However, Chen Yang did not know the true identity of these people, so he asked loudly: "Who are your Excellency, and why do you want to stop you on the way down? In the past 20 years, you have never had a deep hatred with anyone, so why did Your Excellency ignore Chen?"

However, these black-clothed assassins did not respond immediately, they seemed to be cold-blooded killers who had been ordered to complete the task, and after saying the word "drink" in unison, they all rushed towards Chen Yang with the silver knives in their hands.

Although Chen Yanggui is a descendant of the rich and noble family, he is only giving wealth to the people, but he still has a few skills in walking the rivers and lakes. Seeing Chen Yang frowning suddenly, waiting for the assassins at both ends to drive him, Chen Yang got up and dodged the attack of more than 20 black-clothed assassins in a leap, and then jumped lightly and flew directly past the black-clothed assassins in the front row, as if he wanted to directly ask these black-clothed assassins to entangle, and continue to flee in the direction he was leaving.

However, to Chen Yang's surprise, the skills of these black-clothed assassins were not simple, and they were extremely ruthless. I saw Chen Yang cross the position of the black-clothed assassin in the front row, thinking that the underwriting had escaped, but who knew that the black-clothed assassin who had just rushed up reacted quickly, and before Chen Yang could completely land, three black-clothed assassins turned around in an instant, and the silver knife roared towards Chen Yang.

Chen Yang was also shocked, he failed to land. had to hastily block it with his hands, only to hear a few cold sharp sounds in the cold wind, and Chen Yang's arm instantly had three long blood marks. And that's not all. A black-clothed assassin at the front made up for a volley, and Chen Yang failed to control his balance in mid-air and was kicked out of the air directly.

Chen Yang made a few strokes on the ground, and the blood on his arm dragged a full three feet away on the ground, and he flew far away. In the bitter cold wind, the pain of the bleeding wound is always combined with the freezing and biting bones, and the fact is unbearable. Chen Yang gritted his teeth. Standing up from the ground, he was now sure of the purpose of these black-clad assassins. It is to take his own life.

Sure enough, before Chen Yang could continue to ask, all the black-clothed assassins swarmed up again and swung their knives in front of Chen Yang. It's like a devil in black. Approaching Chen Yang with teeth and claws.

Chen Yang saw that he could only escape if he fought to the death. I saw that he got up and kicked the black-clothed assassin in the chest, and sure enough, the black-clothed assassin in the top row did not pay attention, and suffered a heavy blow to the chest, and was kicked several feet away. But there are twenty people who have surged up, and all of them are not under Chen Yang. Coupled with the fact that he was holding a silver knife and making a ruthless and vicious shot, Chen Yang was not his opponent at all. After dodging and parrying empty-handed for several rounds, he was finally outnumbered, and he had been hit by dozens of knives on his body and back, and the whole person became bloody, and he couldn't bear to look at it directly.

In the end, two assassins slapped Chen Yang in front of his chest, Chen Yang couldn't resist it, spit out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person flew out of ten zhang again, fell heavily to the ground, and had no power to fight back.

However, Chen Yang's consciousness was still quite sober, and he was seriously injured and could not compete with these black-clothed assassins, but he still had a chance to escape. I saw Chen Yang endure the pain covered in blood on his body, stand up with all his might, and want to continue to escape.

I thought that being beaten by the black-clothed assassin would add space for me to escape, but who knew that at the moment when Chen Yang escaped, a cold wind blew behind him...... Suddenly, a strong palm wind galloped by, hitting Chen Yang's back. Chen Yang once again spat out a mouthful of blood, and was knocked to the ground with one palm. At this time, he was seriously injured both inside and outside, and he no longer had the strength to stand up, and even Chen Yang felt that his lower body had lost the consciousness to stand.

Chen Yang, who was dying, felt that his death was coming, and tried to look back, only to see that the person who flew at him just now was actually a gorgeously dressed son.

It turned out that the last card left by Chatai Dordun was like this, since it was impossible for the Jiuwang Chamber of Commerce to help the people of Chatai Wangfu, the last task of assassinating Chen Yang, Chatai Dordun naturally went out in person. Not only did he expect that Chen Yang would pass by here at night, but he also ordered a killer with strong martial arts here in advance to wait for the rabbit.

"You...... Who the hell are you......" Chen Yang asked while his last breath was still there.

Chatai Dordun said with a smile: "Hmph, I didn't expect that the dignified Five Heroes of the Northern Plains would have such a wolf day...... Just because you're the last one alive doesn't mean you're more capable, it's just a little bit more lucky......"

"You...... What are you talking about?" Chen Yang listened to Chatai Dordun's words, and seemed to understand the fate of his other four brothers, so he asked nervously, "What are you...... What exactly do you ...... What happened to them, brothers?"

"You really don't know anything, but seeing that your death is imminent, it doesn't hurt to sue you......" Chatai Dordun said with a cold smile, "Those four brothers of yours have already gone down to the Yellow Spring before you, and you are the last one alive and the last prey of this son......"

"You...... What are you talking about......" Chen Yang asked in grief after hearing this tragic news, "Why are you ...... Why do you want to do this......"

"Why...... Hmph - you Han people who think you can save the people are making your own decisions on the land of Mengyuan...... You may not know, the person who ordered this son to get rid of you is the father and son of the Prime Minister of Yizhou City, Xuanwang Xin, who you went to before, and your previous behavior in Yizhou has already caused riots in the local area......" Chatai Dordun continued to sneer.

"How...... How could it be ......" Chen Yang was still a little shocked at this time.

Seeing that Chen Yang was already dying, Chatai Dordun continued to sneer and said, "Before you die, tell you these truths, you are already the luckiest of your five brothers...... But rest assured, the pain will be over, and you will soon be able to meet your five brothers at the bottom of the Yellow Spring......"

After sneering, Chatai Dordun pulled out the Miao knife on his body and slowly paced towards Chen Yang.

Chen Yang had no choice at this time, his life was in danger, let alone fighting back, he didn't even have the strength to stand up and escape, he could only look at Chatai Dordun who was approaching him step by step with frightened and unwilling eyes.

Life and death were in danger in an instant, and the Miao knife in Chatai Dordun's hand flashed with a terrifying cold light, and it was getting closer and closer to Chen Yang......

Suddenly, just before Chatai Dorton had reached Chen Yang's ten paces, there was a loud noise from the attic of an abandoned restaurant on the right side of Chattai Dorton—and when Chatai Dorton looked back, he saw several masked men leaping down from the broken lattice window.

This really surprised Chatai Dorton, who did not expect that there were others in ambush here besides himself. I saw that the masked man's martial arts were not inferior, and several swift hidden weapons went towards the face door of Chatai Dordun.

Seeing that the masked man was in good shape, Chatai Dorton took a few steps back to wait for his chance.

And after the masked men flew back and repelled Chatai Dordun, they raised their swords to block in front of Chen Yang, who was dying on the ground, and it seemed that they had made up their minds to protect Chen Yang from the beginning...... (To be continued......)
